Ok, If I were you, I would choose one or the other and try getting them to
work 1 at a time. I'd go for the memory first. Try putting just the memory back
in the machine and make sure it is absolutely seated in the slot all the way,
and see if that may have been your problem.
If that doesn't work, and the computer will not boot, then just take it back
out, if the computer does boot, check in the BIOS to see if the BIOS is
recognizing it before you boot into Kubuntu This will answer the question
whether the system recognizes the memory, but the Operating system doesn't.
There are basically just 3 problems that can happen with memory.
1. it's the wrong type of memory.
2. the memory isn't seated correctly
3. bad memory module
we can rule out #1 because from what I understand, this was in your system
before and worked fine.
